The anchor then invited the family to introduce themselves: his wife is named Jung-a Kim and the children are Marion and James.

“For 24 to 48 hours, you were the most famous family in the world,” said BBC’s James Menendez.

Then, just to clear the air, Kelly addressed the rumor that he was not wearing any pants during the interview.

“Yes, I was wearing pants,” laughed Kelly.

Jung-a Kim said she didn’t notice the kids were intruding on the interview until 20 seconds after it started. She told BBC that the delay on her television caused her to react later than she normally would.

“She was videotaping the interview so we could have a clip of it and the kids sort of escaped and I had foolishly not locked the door,” said Kelly. “That was all my fault, not locking the door.”

When asked about how it made them feel when several viewers assumed Jung-a Kim was the family’s nanny rather than the children’s mother, Kelly said “Yeah, we were pretty uncomfortable with it.”

At the end of the interview, Kelly asserted that the family did not “stage” the run in, saying that many people had come forward and claimed the family orchestrated the situation to get attention.
